How to get keypress only when active. Not keylogging.

[cowboysandangels]

I noticed when I use _IsPressed(), I'm getting keypress even when my app is not in focus.  I just need to accept and figure out what keys are pressed only when it's the front most/active application.  What am I doing wrong?

 

example:

While 1
   If _IsPressed("0D", $hDLL) Then
      ;equiv to pressing "="
      ... do something but only when it's the active application
   EndIf
    Sleep(25) ;Throttle
 WEnd

Have you tried checking WinActive to ensure that your app has focus?

Looked it up as you suggested.  Put a conditional in the While 1 loop and that seemed to have stopped it from snooping for all key presses when not in focus.  Thanks!
